Entrepreneurship is really hard guys. Much harder than a 9 to 5. It should not be marketed as an alternative to employment but rather as a path for those who are passionate about it.
Love isn’t a transaction where sincerity guarantees the outcome you hoped for. You can offer someone the purest version of your heart, and they can still choose not to receive it in the way you intended. That doesn’t make your feelings less genuine or their response less valid.
I told one of my friends that I love them and then they said “Much appreciated” .
Now I understand that statement,
“Unfortunately people have a right to decline your love, no matter how pure your intentions are. You are not what they want and that is okay.”

📺SABC 1: Society (2007-2010)
Beth and Thuli's relationship was so important in the history of queer representation on South African television.
I'm struck by how quietly groundbreaking their storyline was. At a time when lesbian representation was still rare on mainstream television, SABC audiences were watching a Black lesbian couple navigate love, friendship, visibility and the courage it takes to live openly.
There’s ‘preference’ and then there’s homophobia.
You’ll see the distinction when you read the comments under this tweet.
Men are violent homophobes but women are the biggest homophobes.

📺SABC 1: After 9 (2007-2013)
After 9 arrived at a fascinating moment in South Africa. On paper, the country had some of the world's most progressive protections for LGBTQIA+ people. But as we know, what is written in the Constitution and what happens around the dinner table are often two very different things.
The show understood that gap. Its characters weren't just struggling with their sexuality; they were navigating family expectations, cultural pressures, career ambitions and the performance of being the "right kind" of man.
